Ah.  See the manpage for cfgmaker.  It says:

"   --global ""bla: abc""
           Use this to add global options to the generated config
           file.  You can call --global several times to add mul-
           tiple options.  The line will appear in the configura-
           tion just before the config for the next router
           appearing on the command line.

            --global "workdir: /home/mrtg"

           If you want some default Options you might want to put

            --global "options[_]: growright,bits"
"

In your script, then, I'd do this: (this is only the line that calls
cfgmaker.)  Line is wrapped for clarity in email, please make sure to keep
it on line line in the script, or use a \

perl /usr/bin/cfgmaker --global "Options[_]: growright, bits" public@$2 
--global "workdir: /var/www/html/mrtg/$1" --output /etc/mrtg/$1.cfg


good luck.
